Hi everyone..Archie here.You may remember my tails of woe last year with that stupid snow plow(it dropped it's stupid plow RIGHT in front of us AND WE FREAKED OUT..I mean for awhile there...I wouldn't even go outside........HOWEVER..with the help of my friends I am hoping that this year will be different.My dear pal down the road a bit Mango has been teaching me how to Mango meditate....OHHHHMMMMMM......which I think will really help... and my pals Jake and Fergi sent me,I mean us a package........

Pretty cool huh?? I tried it on first....here it is in a different angle...

I mean wait a minute Ags,let me show you my darling sister, how it really is worn......

She said and I quote" I KNEW THAT"

They also sent me,I mean us A DELISH CAKE IN A DOG BONE TIN!!!! HAVE YOU EVER?????????? and boy oh boy is it good....


SO the snow will start tonight....We are going to wear our neck warmers(maybe over my ears) and eat cake and meditate......I will keep you posted.....(thankyou Jake and Fergi...you rock...)

ARE YOU KIDDING ME??????????????

Well the day we have been waiting for finally came! Remember those cool beds that PL2 and I ordered?? Well they came all right.Archie and I had been talking for weeks about where we would put them and how comfortable they would be, and how we would decorate them....OK here's mine........

ARE YOU KIDDING ME????????WHAT THE HECK IS THIS????????? A FLIPPING CLAM SHELL????????

DOES THIS LOOK LIKE A BOMB SHELTER???NO????????!!!!!! SO I thought before I jumped to any conclusions I would further investigate.......


Wait a minute..what does his look like....

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? IT HAS HIS NAME ON IT!DO YOU SEE MY NAME ON THIS CLAM SHELL????


I looked everywhere but couldn't find my name



Then I made him go look at this supposed bed/clam shell....

Here is your answer....HE WAS STYMIED....DUMBFOUNDED.....

I WOULD RATHER SLEEP LIKE THIS...........

HOPE YOU ARE COMFORTABLE IN YOUR "ARCHIE" BED THERE BUDDIE......




Really why would they even try to invent a bed bomb shelter......


There is NOTHING that could compare to this.........

I have not even put one paw into that thing yet..... Better luck next time PL2

The PBandJ sandwich

So remember a short while back when my brother took one of PL1's peanut butter and jelly sandwiches( not that I am counting but this has happened about three times) Well Lacie adn Scruffy and Stanley sent him something they found that reminded them of Achie...but first...

LADIES AND GENTLEMAN....THIS IS JUST A RE ENACTMENT

I REPEAT...JUST A RE ENACTMENT.....

THIS IS NOT A REENACTMENT..I REPEAT THIS IS NOT A REENACTMENT IT IS REAL EVIDENCE...IT WAS TAKEN FROM HIS BED......

Well look what Archie got from Lacie and Scruffy and Stanley.......It is a tile....

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! This is great!!!!!!!

Our weekend( the shortened version)

Well it started out a little wet and gloomy and ended up quite lovely...Here is a shortened version of what went on in house of A+A..........

You will have to watch very closely to see us in this presentation of zoomies in light speed........

Doing the usual hanging out by the window...

Starting walk #1 on Saturday.....(we were waiting for a cookie..)


Are you kidding me?

I ah....like to go up the stairs to peoples houses......

In the spring when all the birds come back after winter Archie likes to hear all the birds in the trees and when they all go in one tree he calls it a chickadee tree(because it is mostly the chickadees and sparrows that do that)...Listen..A FALL CHICKADEE TREE!!!!!

It was REALLY windy...watch Archie's ears....

Walk #2 Sunday.......

You got it..waiting for a cookie......

Checking out the scene.....

I am astutely watching this......

While he?? yep waiting for a cookie...




WHAT WAS THAT???????

PL2 has this stupid notion that when we need to be distracted( which she seems to think is every 5 seconds) she does this so we eagerly anticipate a cookie or wicked good treat..In reality we look at her because we are mortified that she sounds like such a nutcase we don't want to see anyone....

Eating breakfast and dinner (twice for both Sat and Sun)

And then of course a fabulous nap....( or two or three...)

We were EXTREMELY busy this weekend..Hope everyone had a nice weekend!!!!

More Beds

Well we have of course been very sad, and have been thinking a lot about our pal Snickers and her brother and the rest of their family. PL2 said that she thinks this is a really special group of people at DWB and she wanted us to tell all of you that we all love you very much and are glad you are our friends.



So we really didn't feel like playing a whole lot, and it has been yucky out and we were trying to think of what we could do that would cheer us up.....



And then this came in the mail.........OMG look at the cover!!!! It is a WFT!!!!! (I wonder if they pay a lot to model? I will have to talk to Lacie)

And PL2 and my eyes lit up and we said "that's it!! We will go shopping!!" Then I noticed something...

Oh my gosh PL2 LOOK AT THIS! THIS is where Archie sleeps at night...next to PL1's side of the bed..It has been cold and PL2 gave us blankets...BUT LOOK AT HIS!! IT IS FILTHY

This is mine...It is on PL'2 side.. and I have a crate to one side of it...It is a litle smushed and it does look like I was... ahh thrashing around a little....Actually it looks a little under the weather as well....PL2 and I will have to do a washing today I think...

But then Pl2 started to look through the magazine and said "AGGIE!!!!! Oh did I find something for you!!!!!! "

LOOK AT THIS BED!!! IT IS LIKE YOUR OWN PERSONAL BOMBSHELTER BUT NOT UNDER THE BED!!!!!!! I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT!!!!

So of course we HAD to order it....... and then she said "but what about your brother(who cares I was thinking)Oh I said you mean him???

SO we got him a bed too..He is not as into your own personal bombshelter like I am but he likes the coach style...so PL2 got him this one..AND SHE PUT HIS NAME ON IT!!!!!! (what nudnick??)

SO now we have to wait for it to come..I mean I know you think we have 14,000 beds( well really 13,500 as some have gone the way of wear and tear) but really I have never seen anything like this one.........

SO now we wait,,and bark even harder when the door bell rings( if that is really possible..I mean to bark harder)

If you are wondering what I am looking at in this picture?

Oh yeah..remember him?? He is really into reading...

For Our darling Girl Snickers and her family

We just heard about our darling girl......We think this poem says what is in our sad sad hearts....

Native American Prayer
I give you this one thought to keep - I am with you still - I do not sleep.



I am a thousand winds that blow,I am the diamond glints on snow,I am the sunlight on ripened grain,I am the gentle autumn rain.



When you awaken in the morning's hush,I am the sweet uplifting rush,of quiet birds in circled flight.I am the soft starts that shine at night.



Do not think of me as gone - I am with you still in each new dawn.


Till we meet at the bridge little one...Agatha and Archie

Just a typical afternoon with my brother

Well it started out as a typical day......We woke up, quickly played bitey face, went out, came in , quickly played bitey face, ate, slept, quickly played bitey face, went out, and then went to the Chiropractor( Archie for his usual session and I for a little tune up.....)

So I went first and of course was a perfect angel, and then my brother went up in the table. Then as we getting to leave the door opened and a rather large bull dog came sauntering in... This of course was a perfect opportunity for us to give him a rather boisterous terrier welcome,which not all people appreciate.The rather large bull dog was escorted out and then we followed....but then a very cute white fluffy dog came in the front door. Now I don't know if everyone knows this but Archie has sort of a thing for white fluffy dogs...loves them... think they are like super models....So I had already gone out the front door with PL1 and Arch was with PL2 , who was chatting with the Chiropractor( really PL2 is a chatter) and she is walking out the door.. the little white fluffy dog has gone to the left, and we hear a rather large sound..... of Archie..... who wasn't watching where he was going( a frequent occurrence) and he walked right into the door.........

PL1 and I had no idea what had happened as we were ahead, PL2 is really really laughing, sort of out of control like, and then I SNAPPED into gear........I don't think PL2 realized the severity of the situation.........of what COULD happen.....

Would I have to call an ambulance??????(Pl2 is REALLY laughing now......)

Should I run and get my uniform????

As you can tell in this picture this was after a grueling shift and I was EXHAUSTED........

But then we all noticed that Archie was OK....... The chiropractor did a little something(in the parking lot) to him just in case.......

HOWEVER..... PL1+2 went out last night and came back home and PL1 said to PL2 hmmmmm look what I found in ARCHIES bed.......... the outside wrapper package of this....
PL2 almost fainted on the spot because she has read LOTS of stuff about dogs getting very very very ill from eating gum as it has sorbital which is really really horrible for dogs.........

SO she called this number( well a local number...she was waiting for them to say Oh Hi owner of Archie who has eaten in his short life a bag of brown sugar, two boxes of fig newtons, gnawed at a fake fire log, eaten countless peanut butter sandwiches with the paper towel on it, and who knows what else.....And it is not as if PL1 and 2 are careless.. they are FANATICS.it is just that he is that good at it...)

And PL2 says to the people at the center well I can only see one wrapper....so I think he only ate one piece......BUT NOOOOOOOOO say the people..HE COULD HAVE EATEN THE PAPER AND ALL all 14 pieces.... Now she is really going to faint.... BUT this happened to be a type of gum that was really low in sorbital so it was alright........Pl2 was sweating there for awhile......

A friend who works with PL2 and hears all of these stories about us sent her this picture...........She had been driving and saw this and screeched the car to get a shot..She said she thought of us.. As Tanner would say WTF???? We don't really get it.....

All in a days work.........
